- 1O Master, let me walk with Thee
- In lowly paths of service free;
- Tell me Thy secret, help me bear
- The strain of toil, the fret of care.
- 2Help me the slow of heart to move
- By some clear, winning word of love;
- Teach me the wayward feet to stay
- And guide them in the homeward way.
- 3Teach me Thy patience; still with Thee
- In closer, dearer, company,
- In work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
- In trust that triumphs over wrong,
- 4In hope that sends a shining ray
- Far down the future's broad'ning way,
- In peace that only Thou canst give,
- With Thee, O Master, let me live.
- 5Amen.
